| Message | Discrimination. Anti-Jew are you? |
| Date | 16:11:40, August 21, 2007 CET | From | Cosa Nostra | To | Debating the Education (Religious Schools) Act |
| Message | And what would then be those 'recognised religions'? Would Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam be amongst them? And would you really want, let's say, Islamic schools in Dolgaria with no regulations? |

| Message | He doesn't think. He is crushed in debated before anyone even says something. He's really self-conscious. |

| Message | No, only Christian and Jewish schools, therent arnt enough of the other religions to warrant them having any schools. Im not racist, I am not prejudice (indeed you are, you assume I'm anti-Jew, when infact I see Jews very much as part of my Christian heritage), I am not Elitist, I see success as the key to more success. I cant be bothered to carry on explaining myself to socialism, a very outdated system. |

| Message | How can you call another conviction outdated when yours is 'conservative'? And who are you to claim that christianity (and jews) are the only true religions? And renouncing to explain and defend your beliefs to any other ones only shows your disdain for democracy. Or your lack of proper arguments to do so, of course. |

| Message | if you want reasons for why Christianity is the true faith, then read the Bible. Anyway, those ar ethe only two religions which are not alien to western culture, with any smaller religions (atleast which are small inside Dolgaria) one could say that these sections of the community are shutting themselves off from the rest of society, but with Christianity, they make up such a large bulk of the community, that they cant shut themselves off from socity simply becuase they are society! |
| Date | 11:30:09, August 24, 2007 CET | From | Cosa Nostra | To | Debating the Education (Religious Schools) Act |
| Message | Who says Dolgaria is part of 'western culture'? Who says christianity is the widest spread religion in Dolgaria? And, supposing it is, which would it then be: catholic, protestant, anglican, baptist, born again, charismatic? You see: religion only divides the people, while it is supposed to unite them. The Bible is just a book (and not even a very well written one, for that matter) and only leads to disputes, because everybody interpretes it differently. Just like, for instance the Koran, in which, by the way, you can find hundreds of reasons why Islam is the true faith. |

| Message | The Koran says its written by God.... God doesnt write books, people do. In any case the Koran says Jesus didnt die on the cross where it is a historical fact that he did. I would support any Christian schools. |
| Date | 13:11:19, August 24, 2007 CET | From | Cosa Nostra | To | Debating the Education (Religious Schools) Act |
| Message | Are you trying to prove that the koran is 'historically' incorrect as opposed to the bible? Do you actually believe Jezus walked on water? |
| Date | 13:12:40, August 24, 2007 CET | From | Conservative Nationalist Party | To | Debating the Education (Religious Schools) Act |
| Message | Yes, and so far no-one has proved that he hasnt, considering all witnesses have testified that he did. |
| Date | 13:22:44, August 24, 2007 CET | From | Cosa Nostra | To | Debating the Education (Religious Schools) Act |
| Message | Sure, We had a good party last weekend, had a few beers, smoked some weed and at least 10 of us will swear and testify under oath we saw Elvis that night. He even sang us a song! |
